In a crucial game in the Shore B South division, Wall, No. 20 in The Star-Ledger Top 20, will meet its chief rival, Point Pleasant Boro, for the third time this season on Friday.

In the first meeting between these two teams, Wall won 6-4 on Dec. 19, as Jeff Morgan scored twice in the final 1:45 of the third period to vault Wall to the victory. Point Pleasant Boro had come back from a two-goal deficit to tie the game in the third period.

Since then, Wall has been decimated by not having a full roster and has experienced some injuries. The team currently stands at 12-5-3 on the season. Wall defenseman Tom Panico has been playing with his club team, Comcast AAA and has missed some games. Morgan plays in the North American Prospects Hockey League and has missed a few games. Luke Stohrer has been playing with the Habs junior team and Jess Haviland returned from injury this week, to name a few of the things Wall has had to endure these past few weeks. But Wall should be near full strength for Friday's game.

Point Pleasant Boro, on the other hand, has won five of six games since the loss in the Winding River final and is 11-2-1 coming in. Steven Kovaleski and Carter Klotz are currently ranked second and sixth in the state in points with 54 and 46 respectively. Owen Harrington has chipped in 29 points on the season. If Point Pleasant Boro can get a victory, its lead would be up to three points with just two division games to go for each team.

The contest is set for 5:00 p.m. at Ocean Ice Palace in Brick. Make sure to check in on Friday as we will have a photo gallery from this game here on NJ.com.
